About the museum
The present form of the Holešov château was created to a design by the architect Filibert Lucchese. Construction began in 1650, when Count Jan z Rottalu became owner of the estate. It is an early baroque château with restored historic rooms, ceiling frescoes and stucco decoration.
The château includes an extensive garden in the French style, which according to the town is unique in its size and layout. An observatory stands in its rose garden. The château is managed by the municipal cultural centre MKS Holešov, which organises tours, exhibitions and cultural events and rents out halls for weddings.
The château also houses a permanent exhibition of the baroque sword of Count Jan z Rottalu. The château tour leads, among other rooms, through the stucco hall and the chapel.
